This is utterly chilling and Kafkaesque. An outrageous assault of free speech and media independence.
The Canary is a legitimate media outlet, independently regulated, and is being driven out of business. This will put its journalists in a position of serious hardship as they can't be paid.
And the crazy thing is that they don't even know why the accounts are being closed and have no way of rebutting evidence they can't see!
This is the second time The Canary has been targeted by phantom allegations made by faceless actors. This absolutely STINKS of political targeting.
A country that shuts down journalism challenging the status quo and putting grannies in prison for holding signs... where are we going?

drag as we find it is a relic of pre-HIV epidemic gay culture from when the line between a gay man and a trans woman was a spectrum which is not immediately legible from the perspective of the modern transsexual
Not-so-fun fact: SARS-CoV-2 actually has the fastest RNA-copying engine known to science, allowing it to print its massive genome at a blistering 169 letters per second. But there’s a catch: it copies so fast it makes fatal errors. It only survives because it carries a unique proofreading enzyme (nsp14) that acts like a spell-checker. Without this enzyme to fix its mistakes, the virus cannot replicate and drives itself into instant extinction which is what novel antivirals are being designed to throw off.
crazy how we have confirmation that the entire modern transphobic movement was started by billionaire pedophiles and literally no one on any side is talking about it for some reason
@secrctplaylist@VIVIFANGS In the sense that, I think there is a large portion of fans who engage with the culture in a deeper way than just adoring the showmanship of the idols and I think it's okay to have an expectation or to seek such a level of analysis and participation
@secrctplaylist@VIVIFANGS I am being earnest, I'd prefer if you didn't mock me. :/
Nevertheless it's true. They have insightful takes. It's healthy for any genre of art to have a thoughtful and analytical audience. Your initial point seems cynical about that.
I think the best way to consider it is seeing the group in question as not just the members but also the teams and compagny behind them. And that whole creates the group in question, the members are just the face of the group project
@nobulbsritual@whoiztschick Is this right? I recall MHJ being very passionate about recruiting Minji for the project, it sounded like she was very involved with the trainees from an early stage. So she didn't cast them, just narrowed them down from the original 8 or 9?
How the hell are you supposed to talk about the two illegal Israeli run bio labs in the US that both had COVID samples without sounding like a psychotic conspiracy brained nazi
